All ready to rock out to one of my all-time favourite 70s artists (try & guess who?!) in a retro-style snakeskin printed chiffon midi dress with floaty sleeves, elastic waist with tie belt & asymmetrical tiered hemline from Sheike, khaki suede heels with pointy toes, multiple straps & oversized silver buckles from Wittner & a classic black leather handbag from Pigeonhole to carry all the essentials while fading seamlessly into the background to allow the rest of the outfit to shine. When it came to jewellery, I couldn't help but add to the "animalia" theme of the outfit with matching vintage buffalo horn wrap bangle & cuff (bought at complete separate times more than 6 months apart) from Commercial Road Antiques & an Art-Deco-era carved buffalo horn bangle in the shape of a snake with mother-of-eyes that some dear friends gave me as a Christmas gift.
